Pre-dinner entertainment: a magician
This guy did some pretty impressive cold reading. After the show, he was mobbed, and did more tricks.
This was the only thing I really liked about the statue of Mary in the children's cemetery where my first son is buried--her facial expression was too bland for a mother with a new baby (which the artist depicts) or a mother whose son has died. But the bare feet--that I liked and found very "real" and something to which I could identify on a personal level--maybe that's because I've been poor almost all of my adult life and bare feet are certainly symbolic of poverty. A poor mother is perhaps the most desperate of all. I know that women in concentration camps (of all kinds) gave their hungry children their own portions of food and as a result died from starvation leaving their grieving children motherless and even more vulnerable to brutality. What an unimaginably cruel dilemma.
This shot was taken over the garden fence. The wood pigeon was flexing his/her wings just before taking off.
I live beside this and have found it difficult to discover exactly what is happening and it would appear that the project is a few years behind schedule.
It should be noted that Grangegorman Educational Complex is now a University [TU].
According to the development plan that I received many years ago - The Broadstone Gate will provide a key access to the Grangegorman site once complete and is being developed as part of the Luas Cross City works. It will be finished as a public plaza and the access will provide a major linkage between Grangegorman and Dublin city. The plaza is situated off Constitution Hill on the site of the old royal canal at the former Great Western Railway Station commonly known as Broadstone, and will mark a prominent entrance to the Grangegorman urban quarter. [As can be seen from my photographs much of this has not yet happened]
The Broadstone site, which borders Grangegorman on its east side, was subject to a Part VIII planning process in 2014 in order to facilitate the site development and gate access. Under the Grangegorman Masterplan, the primary urban path through Grangegorman – St Brendan’s Way will link with the Broadstone Gate which when completed will reach as far as Prussia Street. The link with Broadstone can also be seen as an extension to the 18th century historic spine of Dublin City which covered Dublin Castle across Grattan Bridge, along Capel Street/Bolton Street, Henrietta Street [where I live] and King’s Inn.
In May 2016, the boundary wall dividing Broadstone and Grangegorman was removed, creating a historic pathway joining the two sites for the first time. The Luas Cross City works are continuing to progress at Broadstone with a target completion date for the end of 2017. The Broadstone Gate entrance will mark the first access to the Grangegorman site from Constitution Hill.
Note: The Luas tram service is operational however the St Brendan’s Way pathway is not fully operational when I photographed the area at the end of July 2019 and as can be seen access to one section is limited to certain times and days.
This beautiful horse was outside of Sierraville, CA. and it seemed to be a very tired horse because it kept yawning. Maybe I was just too boring. :(
This was very good and consisted of pesto linguini topped with diced tomato and jumbo shrimp scampi. For more info on this yummy meal, check out this site...

This is what I like to call a photo shower. You stand by a puddle in the road and have a car come by so you can shoot the splash, and then after you shoot it, you get drenched! Wooooo. And did this stuff smell magical ahahahaha
Feel free to critque mee! I haven't really been getting much as a response/feedback as I'd like, so I need advice!
Anyways, this is my other shot from today. Gotta get some portraits going again. Taking pictures of stuff is getting a litttle repetitive. So lets do a photoshooooot! :)
If he wasn't just a little cutie-pie? There were three calves all gathered together, until their moms noticed me, and then they kind of split up, but my gosh, they were cute.

This steel truss bridge dates back to the original construction of the Muswellbrook to Merriwa line and was well past it's prime.
This Day Lily was huge; much bigger than its counterparts and others I encountered throughout the year.
This morning I woke up late, I slept almost 9 hours and after breakfast I started working on a project for next Tuesday. I don't know if it's the heat or the fires but I feel extremely lazy today. I didn't go anywhere, two of my activities for Sunday are watching TV and working on this project (I'm still doing it), but it's all good because as Robert A. Heinlein said "Progress is made by lazy men looking for easier ways to do things” :)...
Monday is almost here and September is around the corner, I am 3 months away to finish my 365 and I can't wait for it!!
